There seems to be a lot of noise and cheering going on these days.  And alongside all the noise and cheering, there is also a lot of confusion, fear, and anxiety. Our country is  very divided. 

There are some who are excited and cheering that soon we will all be driving electric cars; maybe free college; free healthcare and, who knows, maybe free food for all! 

On the other hand there are others who are excited and cheering that come voting time there will be a wave of new representatives who will make everything right and save our country. 

It’s true, economic times are not going well. Anyone who buys anything knows they are paying a lot more. On top of that hardship there are disturbing words that the economy may be headed for even more dire times. And we see and hear about other serious issues as well.

But…

But it’s sad that in these turbulent times, there is little cheering for God. Instead of trusting and relying on Almighty God and His precious promises, far too many people are living with fear about their future. As born again Christians we do not have to live with fear.  “I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.” Psalm 34:4   

A good starting point in the midst of all the noise, cheering, and confusion would be to first of all accept that God’s Word is true, period.  Trusting and believing God means trusting and believing His Word.

Do you believe God is still able and willing to do for you what He has promised in His Word? God has not lost any of His power and ability.  Concerning His promises, God is always reliable. Now that’s something to cheer about!

There will always be facts, situations, and challenges.  But none of that ever changes God’s promises to you and me. Nothing that happens to us or around us ever changes or negates God’s promises to us.

We hear about inflation, recession, the government’s doing this and doing that, but does any of that change what God has promised us?  No!  God is still both able and willing to bring His promises to pass in your life. Regardless of the noise and the cheering, we can choose to believe and trust God!  It doesn’t mean what’s going on around us isn’t real.  It means that God’s Word is always true.

Look What He Said!

But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.  Philippians 4:19

That is something to cheer about!

And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work.  II Corinthians 9:8 

Yes!

Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,  Ephesians 3:20 

Yay God!

Those promises, and many others, are worth cheering about!  But more importantly, they are well worth believing!  It is by believing God’s promises that we receive them into our lives.  Jesus said, “Fear not; only believe.”  

We can choose to get caught up in all the noise, confusion, fear and anxiety. Or, we can choose to put our focus on what God has promised us and believe Him!  And we not only have many exceeding great and precious promises in God’s Word, but we can read in His Word about others who believed Him and received His help and deliverance.  

Now that’s something to cheer about!
